Nintendo scoops British Technology awards

We're British and apparently we all think Nintendo are great, so why not report it as some news.

The Awards – which have been voted for online by the general public through www.britishtechnologyawards.com and by readers of Computeractive and Personal Computer World – have been created to offer a snapshot of the country’s digital lifestyle. Designed to provide a glimpse at the nation’s technological obsessions, the British Technology Awards have revealed the gadgets and gizmos we’ve most enjoyed over the last 12 months.

Okay, so it's not an award show we're aware of but it's done some good PR for Nintendo as it seems us Brits are pretty happy with Nintendo hardware at present.

Nintendo cemented a stellar year for its gaming consoles, bagging the Best Gaming Technology Award for the innovative Nintendo Wii, and Best Kids Technology for the Nintendo DS.

Cool cool, Nintendo I'm sure are very proud. Other winners on the night were Apple's iPhone, BBC's iPlayer, Google's Maps app and even ASUS's ickle EEE PC, all products our office is very familiar with.

Ironically no British Technology won any British Technology Awards... doh.

Anthony started Nintendo Life way back in 2006 and has remained at the helm ever since. He loves Nintendo but sometimes gets confused and starts telling everyone that F-Zero X is the best F-Zero game. We’ve tried getting him help, but alas...
